I'm currently looking to buy a gold torch coral online. However I don't know the differences between Indo and Aussie. From what I can tell, the Aussie looks like it has a solid gold color with short and stubby tentacles. Whereas Indo is a more translucent gold with longer and thinner tentacles.

Can someone tell me the differences between the two? What do I need to know about gold torches?
 
I've been told (not had actual experience) that the Aussie's do better than the Indo's long term. You're right about the physical differences. Aussies have fatter, shorter tentacles.
 
Aussies usually are hardier. Same thing with lots of other corals, especially elegance.
